Want To Buy A Unicorn?
That's the headline we spotted in a magazine recently over the photo of a Holstein steer with a single horn in the middle of its forehead. It's owned by Dale Sechen, a dairy farmer near Mason, Wis.
According to Sechen, the "uni-horned" Holstein was born with just the one horn. "Within six weeks of age, we noticed a bump on the forehead," he says.
Now, four years later, that bump is about 18 in. long and Sechen wants to sell the creature. "I figured there are people out there who could put him in a show and make money."
The 2,017-lb. Holstein is tame. "He'll approach you. He'll come right up to you and lick you," Sechen says.
Whoever comes up with $25,000 will own the creature.
